Family is so important to me. It has always been. Our family has been blessed in that everyone lives close. We all live within thirty minutes of each other and we get together often. My husband's side of the family also lives within thirty minutes of each other, however, we had gotten into a rough habit of not seeing each other often. Last month we lost my mother-in-law. It has been so hard, but it has also helped all of us to see the importance of family and we've become closer. Just this past weekend we had my husband's sister and brother and their spouses and kids over for dinner. It was incredible to have everyone under the same roof just being together. Family is everything.

I want my kids to understand this truth about family. I want them to feel the blessing of family. So does Hannah C. Hall. In her adorable children's book God Bless My Family, Hannah helps our little one see the blessing that family is. Not just mom, dad, brother, and sister, but also aunts, uncles, cousins and grandparents. This fun book with animal families will help your child understand and love the blessing of family that God has given us.
